Corporate Cosmetic Surgeon

Russel Nouveau, brand architect with Nuvo Creative, is following in his father's footsteps - in a fashion. "Dad was an eye surgeon and I think that in a way, what I do helps people to sharpen their vision as well", says Russel who classes himself as "a blue collar worker in the art world". Russel began his corporate image consultancy after changing tack from a career in architectural design. During the first few years of starting up he also accomplished a fairly lengthy stint as an academic which culminated in a Bachelor of Design Studies, Master of Business Communication, writing a weighty thesis on the semiotics of visual persuasion and oh yes, a Mensa membership.

To say that this home grown genius is driven, would be a bit of an understatement - but his real passion is to help business people succeed and prosper. "We help business stakeholders refocus and unlock their business potential through value creation. This involves finding the correct branding image, marketing messages, logo design, positioning and advertising, basically a total overhaul - the results for our clients have been reflected in their bottom line". Russel wants to "help people to be inspired, more aware business people and re-ignite their passion for their business by finding it a true identity that delivers more to the marketplace." Russel Nouveau has written various books on slogans, design, thinking and innovation. Most of these focus on unlocking creative thinking and building a richer lifestyle.
